Why no EA on new customer install?


We're in upstate NY and have used the 1000.4 and Dish500 with a DPP44 just like you described on a few installs and it works great. IMHO that's the best way to go up here, 110/119/61.5/72 because the 77 signal is very weak here too.
 

That's all well and good, but should that be updated to reflect that new HD will be coming on the 72.7 bird, and not 61.5? Turns out, my buddy isn't all that interested in BBCA in HD, but I told him that most, if not all the new HD will be on the 72.7, as per the other notice from Dish...

My home was installed today and was put on the EA. I'm counting my blessing. I agree, he should complain!

Where are you again? My friend is just outside Portland, ME.


I'll be watching! k:
 
Well now I pick up 110,119, 61.5 & 72.7 all with 3 ugly Dish's on my roof. WOW, I sometimes wonder why I switched to dish in the first place :-(

I sure hope they switch all the HD over to 72.7 Real fast, because I'll be so happy when I can remove one of my Dish's.

Not all the HD programming will be moving off of 61.5 but most of it will.

3 dishes will give you the best signals out of any solution.

BTW any of you Maine guys close to Gardiner Maine?

but then the customer loses the stuff on 77W...some is duplicated on 110 but the audio channels and other video channels are on 119 & 77

iceberg i think you would be the one to ask...is the mpeg4 only code for EA related only to the 77 satellite? is that the deal? so 110,119,61.5,72 or combinations thereof be fine for instance with mpeg2 receivers?

Any idea what HD Programing will not be moving off 61.5?? I hope they move everything, but the HD in special packages like maybe Sports.

I am 2 hours up the coast from Gardiner, why?

My signals are good in this solution, but it's like the only solution.

Thanks,

Josh

all the channels on Eastern Arc are MPEG4 EXCEPT for the International channels on 61.5...they are MPEG2

110/119/129 is a mix
